    Any opinions on this car? Seems to be an unusual color and fully-loaded.

    I agree - a very nice and fully optioned CP at a reasonable price.

    I spoke with the agent who is assisting the elderly owner in selling his wagon. The mileage is "exempt" on the title and the owner nor the agent can verify if the mileage is 49,000 or 149,000. From the photos, I wouldn't be surprised if it was 49,000. It is very clean inside and out.

    Clean wagon. Nicely optioned, but the lack of 3rd row seating would be a deal breaker for me.

    I can do without the third row seating. Especially since it has all the other bells and whistles.

    It appears to have original paint and wood grain.

    For me, wagons bring back those childhood memories of riding in those jump seats. But mainly, we've got a large family. We need the extra seats!

    Funny..... Our family never had a wagon yet some of my friends parents did. None had the rear seats but on a day trips winter or summer riding in my friends parents wagon/s we would all ways be in the way back..... long before the days of seat belts etc, etc.

    My old 80 Colony was the first of a few of my wagons that had the rear seats.... Yeah my daughter and her friends just loved it and our 1 German Shepherd at the time just loved his plush leather couch back seat.....witch was always covered in a blanket of course;)

    I drive from the front left seat and if my wife is a good girl she gets to ride beside me in the right front seat.
    Never had a wagon with a way back seat so I can live without one.;)



    See post above............:confused:
    What happened to the driving dogs, skateboarding girl and dog, and the goofy saying at the bottom of the recent Tedy signatures? [​IMG] This is not enough. Having a desk job is turning Tedy into a city dude.

    The seller says this car has dual power/reclining seats. Was that an option back then? I can see from the pictures that the passenger side is power with a recliner.
